C.H. Robinson Collaborates With AscendTMS® Carrier Logistics Management Software

TAMPA, Fla. - Dec. 11, 2018 - PRLog -- InMotion Global, Inc., announced today that AscendTMS, an industry leader in transportation management software (TMS) technology, has collaborated with C.H. Robinson, one of the world's largest third party logistics providers (3PL), to offer access to C.H. Robinson loads in real time to any carrier or owner/operator. The collaboration between C.H. Robinson and AscendTMS extends the power of the largest freight network in North America to the desks of capacity providers.

With AscendTMS, asset-based carriers gain an enterprise-level TMS to manage their trucking and business operations. This technology is available at no cost.

C.H. Robinson joins industry mainstays Truckstop.com and DAT in providing North America carriers with available real time loads inside the AscendTMS software.

A one-stop trucking business solution, AscendTMS allows carriers to access multiple mainstream load sources in a single place, as well as manage their entire trucking and driver operations. This means that carriers using AscendTMS get access to the best load sources for their "to be empty" trucks, and  can manage every other aspect of their business operations. AscendTMS is the first free cloud-based TMS for carriers that integrates C.H. Robinson's loads directly into its platform.

Tim Higham, president and CEO of InMotion Global, Inc., said, "C.H. Robinson is joining together with AscendTMS to give carriers the ability to run their entire business operations with high end TMS software. This ensures that carriers are healthy, more efficient, well organized and more profitable. With AscendTMS, carriers get one of the best available TMS software technologies to manage any type of trucking operation. By providing access to C.H. Robinson loads, we are giving carriers access to more high quality freight in order to lower their running costs and thus increase carrier profit margins."

"We want to enable small carriers to do business with C.H. Robinson from within the system they are already using," said Tim Kurzhal, director of North America surface transportation at C.H. Robinson. "Integrating our available freight directly into the TMS system that many small carriers already use can help them drive efficiencies and potentially increase profit margins."
